"How to incorporate Sustainable Architecture when building your home."

Sustainable Architecture is ensuring the functionality of a structure is tied to its relationship with the environment through its appearance.
There are a number of strategies that can be implemented in the building design to achieve this:
1. Daylighting design and Natural Ventilation.
2. Equip buildings with highly efficient mechanical (plumbing) and electrical systems.
3. Use of Renewable Energy Systems, such as Solar and Wind Energy.
4. Green Building Materials and Finishes, that involves the use of environmentally responsible manufacturing techniques and recycled materials.
5. Natural Landscaping that can be achieved through planting trees, shrubs, groundcover and grass that are indigenous to the area.
6. Stormwater management through proper gutter and drainage systems.
